I can proudly say I got it on Tuesday. The Missus opened a copy of it. Then went Oh poo I've been duped. Virus patterns updated that morning, still was not stopped.
Had to lock down zone alarm and track down the rogue program. Luckily it was not an essential ms file (like blast).
Put the file on a disk and then got restarted.
Its a powerful mailer. My 600k connection and AMD2400 managed to send about 150mails in the 2 minutes it was running.
Bit worried about this trojan thing. Is that killed off once the file is deleted and the registary updated?
I've run the Norton cleaner, and PCCillin says I'm clean, but when I start up I get some strange message still.
